East Branch Trail

3.1 mi Out-and-back 135 ft gain

3.1-mile paved route with 135 ft of elevation gain, signed as part of the local cycle network, separated from motor traffic.

Thunderstorms in the forecast — lightning and cyclists are a bad combination.

  • Thunderstorms — lightning and cyclists do not mix — get off the road before they arrive.
  • Pavement: wet — wet during the likely ride window — reduced braking, road spray, limited visibility to drivers.
  • 25 mph wind — strong — plan for slow outbound if wind is against you.
  • 70°F air — right in road cycling's sweet spot
